What Others Might Not Know

Hey Readers,
Today I will be writing about my identity mask, what each object means and what it represents about me.


On the front of my mask, the photos that I decided to apply were all black and white. The white and black colors on the front represent me because a lot of people see me as a serious person, not to social. I chose to put a lock on it to show that I'm not really open to a lot of people, it takes a while for me to let friends in and actually let them know who I really am. The soccer ball and the person running are just some of my favorite activities and show that I'm an active, outdoors person. And last of all the Nike swoosh, this is one of my favorite brands and one that I'm wearing almost everyday.

Now for the backside of the mask, what others might not exactly know about me. Not a lot of my friends think I play or do other activities outside of soccer, that's why I put mountain biking. This is one of my hobbies that I'll usually do, clear my mind and take chances. This volcano is here for two reasons, one is that I share the same name with it. The other reason is that while others might think I'm a serious and tough person, at times I can also be peaceful. And the people talking, while it takes a while for me to let people in and show them my true self, on the inside I'm actually a social person. And last of all, the photos that I chose for the inside of my mask were all for one reason, they had colors. Others might say that I'm a dark or a one sided person, but actually I'm quite a happy person most of the time and have feelings for more then just the things others might see me as.

Each thing that I applied to the mask has it's own meaning. Although people might not know what it exactly means, it has an importance to me.

Child of the West

Hey guys!

Today I'll be writing about how I wouldn't associate myself as a child of the west.

The way I would define "child of the west" would be someone with heritage from people who came to the west or a person from a different continent that refers to the US as "the west". I wouldn't exactly call myself a "child of the west" for more then one reason. Although I was born here in California, I don't have a history coming from the west, in more specific California. 

My Identity Poem

Hey Readers!
Today I'll be writing about my identity in a form of a poem, hope you enjoy.

I am from coffee, from Folgers and beans.

I am from the tree on top of the hill, the sun shining through the leaves.

I am from the fern bush, the oak tree.

I am from family dinners and quiet people, from Nawang and Tshering and Tenzing.

I am from the stubbornness and impatience of my family.

From the desperate times.

From be quiet! and be happy!

I am from namaste, and other prayers I can say.

From the life my grandpa lost climbing a mountain, half of his soul is still up on that mountain, and the time I almost lost my life on a mountain.

I am from shelves of family memories.

I am from the limbs that branch out from the family tree.

Legacy

Dear Readers,

Today I will be writing about My Identity Legacy.

The main things that I would like to be remembered by my grandchildren would be...

- my love for sports
     
        When I was young, I always played sports I was almost always outside play soccer. I started playing soccer when I was 4 and have continued playing soccer. It's one of the most beautiful sports that's out there.

- a person to look up to

         I would also like to be remembered as a person for my children, grandchildren, etc. to look up to, just like a role model. This would be a big thing for me because I wouldn't want my grandchildren not to know who I was. I would want to be just like their inspiration/second father.

'The Waxwork'

Hello Readers. Today I will be talking about 'The Waxwork' by A.M. Burrage.


In 'The Waxwork' by A.M. Burrage, the protagonist, Raymond Hewson, is on a quest to write an article on the Mariners Waxworks pieces of art that are supposedly haunted. Raymond Hewson, a freelance journalist gets himself into a tough situation. Although the wax sculptures aren't supposed to move, this one does and it's Dr. Bourdette. Dr. Bourdette was once the terror of Paris, but later went into hiding, while everyone thinks he's dead, hes actually in the museum itself. Raymond finds himself near a close death situation with Dr. Bourdette, but it was all just his imagination.


Mr. Hewson, a freelance journalist, finds himself not being as brave as he thought he was, letting his imagination take control of his mind. When he thought he had no imagination, he actually finds it which wasn't necessarily good in this situation. While I do not approve of him acting/being brave with the wax works, he truly finds his inner self day dreaming. If I was put in the same situation I would probably do the same, start dreaming but later realizing that it couldn't actually happen. I would realize after the incident the inner imagination of what could happen but all the same time, not physical be possible.

Revolution

Hey readers!
Today I will be writing about how I would like the world to change.

Personally I would like to address wars. If you look into wars and how their actually started, I would say that they're started by religion. Wars are practically just two religions clashing against each other to get even more noticed and followed. An example is IS. They believe that the Americans believes aren't good as said by Allah. So they commit things against this religion which starts a war. That war right now would be US vs. IS. Back to the main point. I would like to have the world with religious peace respecting each others believes and not acting against others with violence to get there word out.
  

My-topia

My-Topia

• Scope:  City-state, it would probably be a decent size, seeing that not everyone would have to join or could join.
• Goals: The purpose of my-topia would be to have religious freedom to believe what you wish to and not have others judge.
• Population: It would be easy to join, all you have to have is a good attitude
• Education: The kids wouldn't be taught in just one way, they would have the chance to explore all religions.
• Architecture: My buildings would most likely look like old Spanish building but with a modern touch.
• Politics and Government: My government would be a republic with one person in charge and others that can influence the bills that go through and such.
• Entertainment: The entertainment that would be offered would be like modern day stuff, such as sports, movies, etc.
• Technology: The technology would be modern day, but growing even more advanced in the future.  
• Food: All sorts of food would be offered.
• Conflict Resolution: Would probably be to talk it through without violence, but if it was to be needed, use the necessary force to resolve the problem.
